Under

Hold your non-dominant forearm horizontally across your body, to act like a surface or divider. Then take your dominant hand and form it into a fist, with your thumb sticking up. Starting from above your non-dominant forearm, move your dominant fist under your forearm, like a child playing hide-and-seek by hiding under a table.
